With the latest version of Firefox (69.0) I am unable to choose 'Always Enable' for Adobe Flash Player. This is not helpful especially on my own website - www.cheadlehulmeweather.co.uk which I run.

The Adobe content is world city times and an image of the moon's phase. I visit my weather site each day and have to enable Flash every time. Why can't you allow the user to make the decision themselves how long they wish to enable Flash for? How about a list of sites it can be enabled permanently for? That way the user can make their own choice.

There were a couple of posts asking the same thing I am, but no answers to either of the. You used to have that Theme and Font Size Changer but I hear that is not very useful anymore. Is there any other way to increase the text on tool bars and menus? It's just way too small. Text on web pages is fine but I can't hardly read the tool bars and menus unless I really squint. Why would you want to make it so terribly small with no way to adjust it?

See details in attachment - WWF problem. I don't know if this is a browser issue, facebook issue or strictly the game issue, but it only happens to me when I play the game with one particular friend. I play with about 30 people, and never get this box that freezes my screen with them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The first attachment shows a box at the top of the screen, there's a circle spinning up there, but the text never shows up and there's no X to cancel it out. I have to refresh the browser to continue on.

I've noted now many times that when I right-click some misspelt word (in English language, as I only have installed/am using 1 dictionary) and add that word to the dictionary, in the next session or may be next day, it again appears as mis-spelt.

I got an email from Firefox Monitor suggesting my email address was involved in a breach on a specified website. The site didn't appear familiar, but I attempted to log on and change my password as suggested. As I did not know of a password for this site, and it wasn't in my LastPass vault, I started with the "Forgot Password" process. The result came back that I didn't have an account on that site.

Why did I get a Monitor alert? Could this have any other implication such as identity theft perhaps? How should I proceed from here?

Every few days when i try to use Youtube or Google in Firefox i get the Error Message "Secure Connection Failed" and the Code "PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR".
This is very annoying and i did not find a way to fix this for me. The only workaround is using another browser.
I have the Version 68.0.2

Even though Google is my default search engine, I have selected the remaining 6 default options under 'One Click' Search Engines.

When I type a letter, it brings up searches for my default Google but the icons for the other search engines are in the bottom left corner.

1. Am I supposed to click on one of the icons to bring up a search for that particular search engine OR is my address bar search supposed to show searches for all seven search engines?

2. When 'Never Remember History' is selected, am I still able to select the 'One Click Search Engines' that will automatically be displayed the next time that 'Remember History' is selected OR can I only choose the one-click search engine options when 'Remember History' is selected?

3. Before signing into my old account, I noticed that users have to create a new Firefox account, even if they have an existing account, so that is what I did-Is that what I was supposed to do?

4. With this new account, will I automatically receive an email notification when someone responds to my thread?

5. Periodically, when signing in with my new account, I receive a 'Bad Request 400' message. Other times, I am able to sign in but the top right corner does not show me as signed in so I have to sign in again; Are these known glitches?

Having long been puzzled by what Firefox considers to be my location, I have tried to find out how to set or change it. I followed all leads that seemed promising. the most direct lead was through the Menu (three bars in my PC-based Firefox). It does not contain the Settings option, nor any kind of 'More' option.
I even used the about:config lead simply to find it is enabled.
All I know is that Firefox holds a Location other than what I would want to to. But I simply cannot find a way to identify where its held; so I can change it.

Given how straight forward this need is I am puzzled on how hard it is to find out how to change it. Can someone help, other than by repeating the common instructions for using the Menu? I attach my list in case it helps.

I have had issues using a programme on Firefox, which I managed to resolve by using a different browser.
However the above message has suddenly appeared on my options page.
What does it mean, is it dangerous, and can I get rid of it?
Many thanks

I've been having a few problems, but it boils down to a hopefully simple problem.

1. Setting up Profiles (v68.0.1 64bit)
When I create a new shortcut with the following targets, it always starts my default profile... if it even works at all.
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" - P "Work"
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" - P "Personal"
... Yes, I know that profiles are case sensitive. No, it doesn't seem to make a difference.
Running "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -P" does launch the profile tool... but only shows the 2 profiles and no real options other than to start the profile, delete it or add a new one.

2. On iOS there is no clear way to switch between Profiles, if that is even possible?

3. I use LastPass on my personal and work account.
When I add LastPass to both profiles... it REMEMBERS my other account. This should be impossible. I don't want the profiles to speak to each other. At all.

These are trivial things to do in Chrome. Am I just missing something? Please provide some suggestions.

Why did Mozilla add bing, google, twitter. amazon, eBay and wikipedia extensions without permission and without showing them in the add-on manager for removal? I found them in my profile, but could not disable them there. Fortunately I was able to disable them in CCleaner. I have not found any explanation in version update blogs, privacy policy notices, etc. If they were added to Firefox by the websites, there was no notice that this would happen that I could find. Is the extension the new data collection technology for these websites to replace cookies?

May or may not be related to (or the cause of) the fact my Adblocker (see below) is now every time FF launches, popping up a new tab saying, hey sorry we couldn't get your settings from the last session, please reset' which I do, but every time FF opens the same again. Eventually, at about 5+ minutes into any FF session, my Mac just locks up. System level process manager (CmdOptEsc) non-responsive, ROM level press power key briefly get a clean reboot prompt non-responsive. Press and hold power key force shutdown thankfully functional, and no risk of power surge incurred by having in the end to pull a plug or turn off a power strip.

I'm both mightily convinced and steamed about it after several trials that is is Firefox and only Firefox and/or extensions. Sorry, but I'm not opening FF again to see all what I have.

Send me a copy that is NOT the version I currently am running which you'll have to figure is the one you have going now, so just take that back to the shop and have a look again because something's amiss. I'm ill, I'm limited in my movements. I don't have the god damned time to figure it out for you.

I've had some problems recently with Windows 10 (64b) blue screen crashes (the most recent example being a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION).

But worse than the annoyance of the crash itself is a problem I've noticed recently where my Firefox settings have all been reset when the PC reboots after the crash. The toolbars are reset, Firefox Sync is logged out (and tells me I need to re-verify when I try to log back in) and some of my extensions have lost their settings - generally things behave like it's the first time I've used it.

Does anyone know why this is, and whether there's any way of preventing it (until I can resolve the underlying BSOD problem)?

My computer can't handle having more than 1 Firefox process open and I want to disable multiple processes, otherwise everything will lag horribly. Is there any way I can permanently disable the multiple processes?
